Lyrics Kelly Willis

Kelly Willis

Heaven Bound

Electricity roared but you looked so bored on the line

Nobody knows how it felt to see that cannonball melt in your mind

Calling all cars, one less dog behind bars, one less man in pain

It hurts to see you go but darling don't you know we're so glad you came

You'll stay gone a long, long time

Day by day you'll fly across our minds

Only a fool would want to stick around

When heaven bound

Disconnect the phone, heart from bone, voice from mind

So sad and blue, how'd you do, of course you did just fine

Grab a tail on this big gray whale and do your best to stay brave

In that final hour he's just a beautiful flower that couldn't be saved

You'll stay gone a long, long time

Day by day you'll fly across our minds

Only a fool would want to stick around

When heaven bound

And you'll stay gone a long, long time

Day by day you'll fly across our minds

Only a fool would want to stick around

When you're heaven bound, when you're heaven bound
